CAT1710 Media Block Number: The CAT1710 Dolby Atmos expansion card hardware serial number. If
applying for a CAT1710 RMA, this number is required, and does not change aer an RMA is completed for the
device.
CAT1710 Media Block Cert: The CAT1710 Dolby Atmos expansion card electronic serial number. If a board is
repaired by Dolby, it is returned with a new extension: -01, -02, and so on. As shown previously in figure 45,
the CAT1710 Media Block Serial Number and CAT1710 Media Block Cert are dierent, which indicates that
a repair was completed by Dolby for the respective board and the board was returned to the customer. KDMs
targeting the CAT1710 use the CAT1710 Media Block Cert number.
3.2 Configuring macros
The CP950 and CP950A require macros to process audio. The system provides you with these default macros
that you can use, edit, or discard.
• 5.1: Processes a 5.1 signal from a digital cinema playback system through the 8× AES IN connector.
• 7.1 Dolby Surround: Processes a 7.1 signal from a digital cinema playback system through the 8× AES IN
connector.
• 5.1 + Dolby Atmos (CP950A only): Processes Dolby Atmos content and a 5.1 signal from a digital cinema
playback system through the 8× AES IN connector.
7.1 Dolby Surround + Dolby Atmos (CP950A only): Processes Dolby Atmos content and a 7.1 signal from
a digital cinema playback system through the 8× AES IN connector.
• AES 2ch BNC B: Processes PCM, clock, or a coded input signal through the 1× AES IN B connector.
Supports Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby E, and PCM at up to 192 kHz physical transport. Note that
the 8 × AES input (sometimes referred to as AES input A) is limited to 96 KHz. During processing, the
system converts all audio signals to 48 kHz, as the CP950 and CP950A have a fixed output of 48 kHz.
• AES 2ch-BNC C: Processes PCM or a coded input signal through the 1× AES IN C connector. Supports
Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby E, and PCM. Supports Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby E,
and PCM at up to 192 kHz physical transport. Note that the 8× AES IN input (sometimes referred to as AES
input A) is limited to 96 KHz. During processing, the system converts all audio signals to 48 kHz, as the
CP950 and CP950A have a fixed output of 48 kHz.
• HDMI: Accepts audio from an HDMI source. Supports PCM, Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, or Dolby True
HD. If the system detects a video signal on the HDMI IN connector, it can repeat it on the HDMI OUT
connector.
• Microphone: For public address/announcements. A CP950 can process the microphone to output from
the center speaker or all of the surround speakers. A CP950A can additionally process the microphone to
output from the overhead speakers. For best results, reduce latency as much as possible. Note that for
some microphones, you need to turn on phantom power (at +48 V) in the web client UI macro editor
screen or in the front-panel user interface (FPUI).
Note: You can damage your microphone if the macro setting is wrong. In addition, do not hot plug
a microphone when phantom power is enabled. (It could damage the microphone circuitry.)
• Non-Sync: Accepts le and right analog signals. You can add surround processing (upmixing) to this
stereo input, and turn on derive LFE (for low-frequency eects) to change these signals to 5.1 or 7.1.
In addition, you can create macros from scratch by selecting macro editor in the setup menu, as shown in
the following figure. You can configure macros and assign the order in which they are displayed in the FPUI.
